Style It Less

Denim Knee-High Boots, Yay Or Nay?

Denim Knee-High Boots, Yay Or Nay?

I got so excited when I opened my mail today and saw the new promo for Cutesy Girl. I have purchased shoes from the sites before because it’s one of my favorite places to shop for bargain shoes. For Fall season, I’ve bought 2 pairs of knee-high from Cutesy Girl before. A Soda Shoes brown wedge boots and black studded pair. When I clicked on the link today I saw a pair of dark denim knee-high boots that just totally turned me off.

And wouldn’t you know it, the dark denim also comes in a lighter version. What’s even more …read more

Funky Town Jumpsuit, Yay or Nay?

Funky Town Jumpsuit, Yay or Nay?

I’m definitely NOT a jumpsuit trend advocate. Even though one of my favorite celeb fashionistas, Gwyneth Paltrow, looks good in it. Seeing this Funky Town Jumpsuit from Lulu’s just gave me an even good reason not to like it.
Prints are prints and I like it on a top or a dress. But not in a jumpsuit albeit solid colored jumpsuits are not my thing either as I said earlier. I just went “WHOA” when I saw it. I tried visualizing it with a cropped jacket like either a motorcycle, bomber or denim jacket and paired with pumps. …read more

Heart Cut Out Bags, Yay or Nay?

Heart Cut Out Bags, Yay or Nay?

When the circle cut out bags came out last year which I saw on a lot of Woman at the mall, I should have prepared myself for another shape cut out bag. Like, oooh I don’t, hearts?

The new shape that’s out and most probably be found on some Women or teenagers arms are these heart cut out bags. I thought the circle cut out bags were terrible but the heart cut out are even worse. Actually, I would find it cute on a teenager but not a Woman. It’s too girly and trendy and too cute.
These can …read more

What’s Wrong W/ This Flower Patch Dress

What’s Wrong W/ This Flower Patch Dress

I actually like this flower patch dress from Forever21. I love the patched flower trims on the neckline and the edged out hem. I love the contrasting colors of white dress and the purple, brown and green prints. It’s definitely pretty. I would love to wear this dress right this minute to beat the summer heat except for a couple of problems.
The neckline is too low and it doesn’t seem to have a good support for the bust. The model pretty much served as a hanger for the dress. I’m sure you have heard that kind of reference in …read more

Papillon Blanc Twin-Print Dress, Yay or Nay

Papillon Blanc Twin-Print Dress, Yay or Nay

I do believe that twin-prints on dresses can be tricky to pull off. You don’t always find twin or multiple prints on 1 dress that mesh well for an overall look. Take for example this Papillon Blanc Twin-Print Dress.
The top is in black & white animal print while the bottom is also black & white floral print with a pop of purple colors. I got dizzy the first time I saw it. Well, it’s an exaggeration but you get my drift.
The problem with this dress is that each print is already bold and powerful, know what I mean? …read more

Harem Pants, Yay or Nay?

Harem Pants, I call it the undecided pants. It couldn’t make up its mind. Whether it wanted to be loose or tight. So loose and tight it is. The result? An Ugly looking pants that is a big FASHION DON’T.
Sorry but unless you’re one of the contestants on So You Think You Can Dance, Harem Pants are just freaking ugly. I could understand it’s sort of comfortable that’s perfect for dance performances. It could be edgy with embellishments. But other than that, I don’t know how anyone else who could justify wearing a loose crotch and tight knees or …read more

I Call This A What The Hell Dress

I Call This A What The Hell Dress

Add this Cascading Chiffon Dress from Forever21 in my “I wouldn’t be caught dead wearing that outfit” list. There is no way in hell I’d wear this Fugly dress.
Who woke up one day, got ready for work, and decided to sketch a sheath dress then imagined grabbing a curtain in her living room and sewed it in the front of the dress? I don’t consider this avantgarde nor is it a clever design. My golly, what the hell were they thinking?
Tell me honestly, would you wear this dress?

Jelly Gladiator Sandals, Yay or Nay?

Jelly Gladiator Sandals, Yay or Nay?

In my opinion, jellies should only be for little kids. Having said that, I haven’t bought my daughter any kind of jelly shoes. I guess it’s really not my thing. Anyhoo, I love the gladiator trend. I have them in heels, platform heels, and flats. Do I think jelly gladiator sandals are cute? Heck no.
Honestly, would you wear jelly gladiator flats? If you say yes, then I guess it’s your fashion prerogative. It’s just really not something I would be clamoring for anytime soon. This one is from Payless for $16.99 and it comes in other colors too.

Whitney Port’s Boyish & Tattered Look

Whitney Port’s Boyish & Tattered Look

Celebrities like Mischa Barton are always trying to introduce fashion trends hoping that if it ever catches onto the mainstream status, they’ll get credit for it. Most often than not, they fail miserably because they look ridiculous and obviously desperate for such accolades. And guess what else, because most fashionistas are smart. They know that not all celebrity trends should be followed.
Just take a look at this Boyish and tattered trend that Whitney Port is trying to introduce.
Are you kidding me? Boyfriend tattered jeans, cuffed and worn with Men’s spectators. Please Whitney, don’t insult our intelligence. It’s ok …read more

Now That’s What I Call Butterfly Print

Now That’s What I Call Butterfly Print

I love butterflies. Real ones, printed ones, and butterflies accessories. But I don’t know if I like the butterfly on this Plastic Island Sweater Dress.
Not that I would wear a sweater dress at this moment since it’s summer after all. There’s a scary factor coming from the oversized butterfly print. What do you think?
If you like it, perhaps it would look great during the Fall season. I suggest you wear tights underneath then pair it with boots or wear skinny jeans instead for a chic look. $70 from Dillard’s in sizes S, M, and L.
